Action

Retrieve site explorer metrics

The getsiteexplorermetrics endpoint retrieves comprehensive seo metrics for a specified website using ahrefs' site explorer tool. it provides crucial data such as backlink profile, referring pages, organic keyword rankings, and various other seo-related metrics that are essential for understanding a website's performance and authority in search engine results. this endpoint is particularly useful for seo professionals, digital marketers, and website owners who need to analyze their own sites or competitor websites. the tool offers flexibility in terms of analysis scope and specific metrics retrieval, allowing users to tailor the data to their specific needs. however, users should be aware that the depth and recency of data may vary depending on ahrefs' crawling frequency and the size of the target website.

Why this helps

Baseline a URL announced in a launch channel otherwise requires leaving Telegram, reopening Ahrefs, and reconstructing the original context.

  • Retrieve site-explorer SEO metrics attached to the launch discussion from the source context.
  • Keep the analysis and its caveat in the Telegram run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Ahrefs to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Ask Notis to create this automation, or open Automations → New Automation and enter a name plus this prompt: “When a channel post provides a channel post containing a specific public launch URL, use Ahrefs to retrieve site-explorer SEO metrics attached to the launch discussion. Report the result in Telegram with the source target and a short interpretation. The bot must administer the channel; metrics depend on Ahrefs crawl coverage. Ignore unrelated messages.”
  • 3Select the Telegram New Channel Post trigger and choose Telegram as the run-report channel.
  • 4Test with one real channel post containing a channel post containing a specific public launch URL; review the Ahrefs result and the stated limitation.
